Clarity to Create Space, Place, and Pace

Charney Consulting is committed to working with you as a thought partner. Our guiding principle for coaching and consulting is to achieve the balance of “Space, Place and Pace”—creating space to explore, learn and take action on issues that are most challenging; helping with discovery and establishing an optimum place through understanding and leveraging of values and strengths; and identifying, learning and practicing ways to achieve and sustain a balanced pace between work and personal life.

Charney Consulting is certified to administer and interpret tools and assessments that measure individual, leadership, and team skills and style.

Renee demonstrates a unique talent to maximize her clients’ capacity for thought leadership, results leadership, people leadership and self leadership. I have had the honor

of collaborating with Renee on work around senior-level team building. Her insights with workshop design complete with a willingness to offer both form and void allowed for the powerful conversations to emerge. This made all the difference to the senior team that

was in its infancy 18 months ago and are now highly functioning and producing best in class business results. It was a joy to work with Renee and partner with her in what has become one of the most powerful team experiences of my career.

Renee brought an extraordinary listening to both me as a leader and our staff that resulted in significant learning through models and coaching that was customized to our needs.

Her gentle, supportive approach challenged me to adjust my lens and see the staff and the organization in a new way. The staff is taking responsibility in new ways; I am listening in new ways. Instead of feeling frustrated after seven years, I feel like I have a new staff, new challenges, new possibilities for learning.

Renee facilitated Myers Briggs Type Indicator training for my team at ADP. As a result of her insight and expertise, she was able to help us collaborate and communicate better and become a higher performing team. She is passionate about what she does and would be a strong asset to any organization needing help in building their teams.

I've had the privilege of working with Renee as part of a CEO selection process. Renee provided expert consultation in administering and interpreting Hogan Assessments for final candidates and provided support in debriefing the results and implications with the chosen CEO. It is Renee's clear commitment to customer satisfaction, professionalism in all aspects of her work, her openness to constructive feedback and attitude of partnering that make it an extreme pleasure in working with her. I would recommend Renee in a heartbeat!

My company hired Renee to work with me as an Executive Coach for a 6 month engagement which concluded this month. In the time we worked together, I was inspired by Renee's creative approach to problems and her knack of bringing forward exactly what I needed to think more about to grow and develop as a leader. She has a good balance of "tools" (theory, books, models) and importantly real life experiences to draw from that enrich the coaching experience. I would highly recommend Renee as an executive coach for someone looking to learn what is motivating them below the surface, and to find practical, applicable ways to adapt behavior and outcomes.

Renee's coaching and consulting capabilities heighten a CEO’s leadership and self-awareness. I have referred her to a CEO who, through her coaching, enhanced their leadership performance and employee engagement. She helps build clarity around objectives and an understanding of others' perspectives. Renee is both engaging and creative. She has worked with a team of highly effective consultants and myself by facilitating learning models and tools for us to use with CEOs and teams.

Renee's thoughtful approach to understanding the dynamic of the group and engaging

our team in the hard work of change was fundamental to the progress we continue to make. The concepts we covered in our sessions were directly applicable to our day-to-day operations and are serving us well in achieving our longer-term strategic objectives.

She is a powerful observer and listener which serves her well as she helps her clients come to understand the underlying reasons for certain behaviors and habits. Renee made quite an impression on our team: we regularly “channel” Renee in how we question process, describe our interactions, etc.
